THE New York analyst gives the
following hints on the use of kerosene
oil lamps in order to get the best light
and avoid unpleasant odors. The wick
must be clean; if clogged up with dust
it will not pump up the oil. The
lightest part of the oil burns first, leav-
ing the heavy oil; if filled up day after
day the oil will become so heavy that
the draft will not be strong enough to
pump it up. The burner. if gummed,
gives an uneven, smoky light; if the
holes provided to give perfect combus-
ton be stopped up the same effect will
result. The lamp should be filed up
every day, and once week all the oil
should he turned out; new wick put
in once in two weeks and trimmed with
sharp shears even and true every day;
the burner kept clean by brushing
every day and boiling in I've occasion
ally, and the chimney brightly polish
ed. Treated in this way the Kerosene
oil lamp is a luxury, and not vile,
ill-smelling nuisance.
